Packing


I have one suitcase officially packed, zipped shut, and ready to go. The wonderful ladies from our church quilting group donated their latest batch of quilts to us to take to China. The Holmes girls, Mikayla and Melissa, were adopted from China. They and their parents are in China on a homeland tour. We hope to return some day with Lila too and Grace so they can see where Lila is from. Ok, I know I'm rambling again...So Kayla got 1/3 of the quilts, Meliss got 1/3, and Lila got 1/3 to take along as donations. We will give ours to our Children's Hope International coordinator in China. Children's Hope has a foster home where children with special needs can stay after surgery. It's important to us to help the other special needs children because our Lila was one of them. Thanks to our sweet church ladies we can do a little something to make them feel safe & warm. The quilts and Lila's clothes and couple of the gifts we are taking along are packed in our smaller suitcase. It's even under the 44 pound weight limit! YEAH!
